How to Register to Vote in South Dakota

The conventions are over. An autumn chill is in the air and the November 6th elections are just around the corner. What does that mean for you?

If this is the first time you will be voting or if you are new to the area you need to register. The deadline for registration is 15 days before any election. This year the registration deadline is October 22nd.

The places you can register include the County Auditor’s office, driver’s license stations, public assistance agencies, military recruitment offices and you can mail in a registration. If you need to update your address or want to change your party affiliation you can do that at the same places.

As we get closer to Election Day remember that in South Dakota the polls are open from 7am to 7pm. And don’t forget to bring identification. According to the the Secretary Of State’s website, approved forms of photo identification include:

South Dakota driver’s license or nondriver ID card

U.S. government photo ID

U.S. Armed Forces ID

Student photo ID from a South Dakota high school or South Dakota accredited institution of higher education

Tribal photo ID

If you do not have a photo ID, you can sign a personal identification affidavit and still be allowed to vote.

For a look at what is on the ballot this year you read about the ballot questions and see some of the offices on the ballot on the Secretary of State’s website. And as we closer to November 6th look for sample ballots from the state and county.
